Where the hell am I? :: stuff - watches - FAKE Panerai GMT

There is something about the Panerai that just captures your attention, or at least it did mine. The larger size (44mm), the large hour numbers, the crown clasp, all add to a very unique watch. Too bad they are way out of my budget at around $3,000 and up. So, although not the real thing - or even close, really - I bought this replica to see if in some small way I could capture part of that mystique.

One complaint folks have about Paneria replica watches is that they are so far off from the real thing. Me? I really don't care - any way you slice it this is a nice looking watch. I really like the second time zone feature and the size of the watch is fantastic. Plus it's the first I've owned with a deployment band. I like it and want more.

The last of my f@kes, now. I've gotten rid of the rest of them and have really stopped even bothering looking at them - this one, I can't let go of, however. I really like this watch! Really wish it had another name on it - a homage watch rather than a rip off.
